Description

Chicken breasts are glazed with a zesty and sweet fig, Dijon, and Champagne vinaigrette sauce in this quick and easy dinner recipe that's sure to impress guests.

Ingredients

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons fig butter
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon Champagne vinaigrette

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
2 Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat oil over high heat in a large oven-safe saute pan. Place chicken into the hot oil and cook until browned, 3 to 5 minutes.
3 Mix fig butter, Dijon mustard, and vinaigrette together in a small bowl. Flip chicken using tongs and coat top with fig mixture.
4 Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the centers, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
5 Remove from the oven and cover chicken with aluminum foil; let sit for 10 minutes before serving.
